Hi everyone! I'm a brand new member, and am looking for some help from some people more experienced than myself.
For the past couple months I've been building a truck camper for my little Nissan Frontier, and for the past couple months I've been torn on how I should waterproof it.
I know this topic has been talked about many times, but I have yet to find out the information about my specific need.
---MY QUESTION---- what type of waterproof coating will adhere to my plywood, screws, and seal around my already installed rubber roof rack mount
The exterior sheathing of my camper is 1/2" & is fastened yellow zinc plated constructions screws.
My roof rack has been bolted through the sheathing, and has a rubber gasket sealed with silicone.
I'm just interested in finding a product that can seal around these materials
Ideas
- epoxy coating
- Truck Bedliner
-poor mans fibreglass (cloth and titebond combination)
- fibreglass
Sorry for the long post, but hoping you guys will be able to point me in the right direction
I have same constructed TC with plywood,,used three layers of Cold Cure epoxy,,
West epoxy would work also check the prices whichever is cheaper..
Both need to be topcoated to protect against sunlight,uv rays,
,I used high gloss white marine enamel
Bedliner coating maybe good idea,,dont know how long it would last and if it would stay stuck on plywood..
Theres also some ruberized roof coating people use in roofing industry,dont know the name,,do a search
